So, in about two weeks I will be on my way to Antigua, Guatemala for a two week vacation/Spanish education trip. This will be my first solo trip pretty much anywhere so needless to say I'm slightly terrified!!
The reason I picked Antigua, Guatemala was that it was recommended to me by a co-worker for not only being a great city but for being a great place to learn Spanish.
The thought of seriously becoming bi-lingual came to me about eight months ago and the thought is still lingering despite the reality of just how hard this goal is! So, I'm giving it my all! I've been studying on my own since the decision was made so this will be my first real shot at formal education. I will be taking Spanish classes 6 1/2 hours per day for the full two weeks with one-on-one instruction. Let's hope I learn something besides hablo un poco de espanol and no entiendo (I speak a little of Spanish and I don't understand)!
I do have an appointment to meet with a tutor (after three previously failed attempts) in a few days so hopefully she's good and can help me prepare for the trip so that terrified feeling isn't so intense!
Stay tuned!
